| Abstract: | Should we be researching it and if so, how should we research it? If we try to measure it are we using a reductionist & materialistic paradigm that does not really fit? (Descartes, Newton). Is there a more appropriate paradigm? Spirituality may have different ontological [existence] & epistemological [knowledge] assumptions. |
